Good Thursday morning everyone! I have made a few changes to the blog. I am going to try place the weather tracking tools at the bottom three quarters of the page. The top quarter of the page will be my current thoughts and comments concerning what I am seeing on the models and the latest data.

Calm weather will previal today. Mild temperatures in the upper 50s.

Much colder weather is forecast for the upcoming weekend. There could be some snow showers on Friday night/Saturday.

A very active pattern will develop over the coming 2-4 weeks. Multiple storm systems are possible in a fast jet stream pattern. Monitor updates as we move forward. The pattern is loaded for some big events in the United States. Storm tracks will have to be determined as we deal with each system.

If you are a weather enthusiast then I recommend listening to WeatherBrains each week! For a more in-depth look at what is happening in meteorology.

Now is a GREAT time to buy a NOAA All Hazards Weather Radio. Better to have one before storms strike than to be without one during an event. I recommend the Midland Model 300 NOAA All Hazards Weather Radio - that is what I use here at my house!
